‘Caillettes’ made of sausagemeat wrapped in lacy caul fat and fried are a popular version of sausages. This version is from the Nîmes area.

Ingredients

about 125 g 1 large

Method

Soak the caul fat in cold water for about 30 minutes to make it pliable. Set the oven at moderately hot (190°C/375°F).

Plunge the chard or spinach leaves into a large pot of boiling salted water and cook over a high fire for 5 minutes. Drain, refresh under cold running water and drain well. Squeeze to remove excess moisture. Chop the leaves.
